I grew up on Hancock st. in the Bed-ford stuyvesant section of Brooklyn and yes, I played punch-ball, stick-ball, kick the can, red light green light 123,Ring-o-livio, Johny on the pony, yo-yo’s, spinning tops/crack tops skelley, marbles, jacks, and our neighborhood favorite, run catch and kiss. That was a game that would later lead to hot roof top make out sessions.
